Do Your Code Like A User Is Stupid

Developers spend hours designing "intuitive" interfaces, convinced that no user could possibly misunderstand them. Then reality strikes with the subtlety of a truck carrying lumber sideways. Users will find ways to break your system that you couldn't imagine in your worst fever dream. This is why we have error messages like "Please don't hold your phone upside down while shaking it violently and trying to log in." Murphy's Law of UI: if there's a wrong way to use it, someone will find it... and then file a support ticket.

Covering While The Front-End Guy For The Project Is On Vacation

Backend devs suddenly thrust into frontend work is like watching a fish try to climb a tree. The meme perfectly captures that moment when your React-allergic backend colleague has to touch CSS while the frontend dev is sipping margaritas on vacation. Meanwhile, they're also dealing with ChatGPT generating components that look functional but are secretly held together with digital duct tape. The face of pure existential dread says it all - "I didn't sign up for this flex-box nightmare!"

Any Solves Any Issue

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute HORROR of discovering TypeScript's any type! It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion but being POWERLESS to stop it! 💊 Fresh-faced TypeScript devs staring longingly at that magical pill labeled "any" that promises to make ALL their type errors vanish into thin air! Sure, honey, just sprinkle some any on that complex interface and POOF! – your compiler stops screaming at you! Who needs type safety when you can have BLISSFUL IGNORANCE?! It's the gateway drug of TypeScript – one minute you're using it "just this once to make the error go away," and the next thing you know, your entire codebase is a typeless wasteland. The BETRAYAL! The DRAMA! The TECHNICAL DEBT!
